[ft] charmap

[Martin Olbrich]

Hi,

I am using the Arial.ttf and cant get the right character mapping for 
special german characters "äöüß" although my charmap is unicode.
Can it have to do with the character values of those being negative?
string text;
text[i] --> negative number for "äöüßâàá..."
FT_Get_Char_Index( face, text[i]); --> returns always 0 for those 
special characters.


thank you
martin.
